Shirdi Sai Baba Blessed Me With His Aarthi Sewa In His Temple

Shirdi Sai Baba devotee Shujaatha AN from India says : Thank you Pooja Garg ji and Bhargav ji for making me a part of the Satcharitra MP. I would like to share my experience which happened last week.
Just like all others, I was most eagerly waiting for the new year to welcome. Baba has definitely made 2017 a very memorable year for me with more positives than negatives. It was the last Thursday of the year and I had planned for a trip to Andaman islands.

The chapters alloted to me were last chapter along with Aarthi and the first chapter. I felt happy and thanked Baba because it was like, 2017 is ending with the last chapter and 2018 is starting with the 1st chapter, with Baba’s blessings. I read the chapters on airport and left for the trip.

Now, after landing in Andaman (a place full of islands and beaches) on Thursday evening, me and my husband walked towards a hotel, I heard Baba’s Dhoop Aarthi. I was wondering from where I was hearing it. Then we had to leave somewhere else so I couldn’t search for the temple and left the place.
The next evening, after roaming all places, I refreshed and searched where is the temple; from where I heard the Aarthii. I found one temple named Lakshmi Narayana temple.

I was slightly disappointed since it wasn’t a Baba temple. Still I went inside, thinking Baba is Lakshmi Narayana and all other Gods to me. To my surprise, after having darshan of Lakshmi Narayana, I turned and saw a beautiful Baba idol smiling at me. With goosebumps, I went near and bowed down to Baba’s lotus feet. That minute, they played the Dhoop Aarthi. I felt so happy and was thinking in my mind, let me stay for at least 10 minutes of Aarthi and then leave. But Baba had a different plan. After a minute the Aarthi had started, the temple priest handed over the Aarthi plate to me and told to do Aarthi for Baba. I was not able to believe what was happening.

Not only that, he let me to take the full Aarthi and then blessed me giving Udi and flower. I sang the whole Aarthi and was talking to Baba, “In a place of 500+ islands surrounded, You are calmly seated here and You pull me from Chennai to this temple and give me a lifetime memorable experience of taking Aarthi to You”. I was totally speechless for the rest of the evening with teary eyes. I definitely feel Baba is blessing me as a part of Mahaparayan, where I read Aarthi chapter followed by taking Aarthi for Baba in an island. I pray Baba to bless me like this always and also all people who are a part of this MP. Sai Baba ki Jai. Shirdi ke Raja ki Jai .

Mind & Heart will be peaceful & travel in His path if we perform all the four Aartis. Further there was a promise from Sainath Maharaj that He would be present wherever Aarti is performed.

Jai Sai Ram
Shujaatha AN



How beautiful to even realise the fact of the year ending with last chapter followed by Aarti in Mahaparayan as well as in Baba’s temple and beginning of the new year with the first chapter of Sai Satcharitra! It all shows that all Baba is only doing. It was such a bliss to read your  experience to read with waves of goosebumps coming from Baba’s temple across the island. Love You Sai Maa. Jai Ho Sai!!!
